They are evil. Need proof? The Tribe was unable to touch the evil Yanks pitching tonight all game, but God called in a plague of Canadian Soldier bugs into the Jake, which distracted Satan?s pitchers and hitters and allowed the powers of good, who seemed to be much less affected by the swarm, to triumph.

By the way, I expect some fringe Canadian group to come out of the woodwork and demand that the name of the bugs be changed after getting national attention during the game and on Sportscenter. Canadian Soldiers is a derogatory term, because they only live for a day or two and appear to serve no purpose. In truth, they are also known as the Fish Fly (they stink like dead fish), June Bug, or May Fly.

The New York media will have 2 days to sharpen the knives with an off day tomorrow

K-Rod will be the obvious target, with the The New York Times story on the 2-1 loss tonight featuring this nugget:
Alex Rodriguez went 0 for 4 with three strikeouts and has only four hits in his last 50 postseason at-bats.

The Times also has a column devoted to trashing K-Rod's latest playoff troubles
New October, but Same Old A-Rod

Rodriguez may yet get a hit before this series ends, but he has no guarantee of such flaming success. In the division series against the Tigers last year, he had one hit in 14 at-bats. The year before, in the division series against the Angels, he had 2 hits in 15 at-bats. He finished the disastrous league series against the Red Sox in 2004 with one hit in his last 15 at-bats.

I wont get into any dicussions with you Yankee trashers. I feel like I just woke up from a bad drunk. I just hope that the Steelers can make atleast my train ride to the Bronx on Sunday pleasant. At this rate I dont even want to think about the ride back.

I am so sick of hearing the best team that money can buy b.s. The Yankees through out history have endured many rule changes with the game involving player personnell mostly designed to impede their dominance. These changes go all the way back to the creation of the draft . Designed to stem the Yanks operations of advanced scouting to aquire talented players that other teams chose not to spend the money to even find. Up to the present revenue sharing situation in MLB today , which the Yanks voluntarily commited millions of dollars to this past year alone so that other "less off teams" could stay competitive. Is it their fault that most of these weaker teams did not spend this money to better themselves? What about the problem of other teams raising the ticket prices when the Yankees are in town just to squeeze more cash out of the working class and line their own pockets?

The organization is commited to doing whatever it takes to win. If the owners choose to spend money on their team to do that instead of putting it all in their pockets than that is their perogative. Whether that means trading for a player like Krod who was signed foolishly by another organization who overpaid him and then realized they couldnt afford him then had to cut expenses. Or keeping their home grown products by signing them to big deals when it is their turn to file for free agency.

If the Yankees have ever been guilty of anything it is of providing their fans with the best possible product they possibly can to give their fans a WINNER! Whatever happens today in the Bronx one thing will remain the same. The N.Y. Yankees have won 26 World Championships and no other team in the history of Profesional sports can say that!
